HOW IT OPERATES:
The solenoid valve is plumbed into the water supply line just after the main shut off valve. You simply mount the
button pad controller at the most used entry/exit into your residence.
This will allow you to conveniently turn the water on or off to your entire home. By pushing the on/off button a wireless signal is received by the
transceiver module plugged into one of your electrical outlets up to 25 feet away from the button pad controller. With the Solenoid Coil plugged into the base of the Transceiver Module, the signal is received and the shutoff process is activated.
By placing the
24/7 Water Sentinel sensor in leak prone areas, leaks can be detected right away. This floor sensor can also be mounted to a wall. By using the included low voltage electrical sensor tape which can be plugged into the side of the 24/7 floor/wall sensor, the other end can then be placed into a drip pan. As water comes into contact with the sensor either directly or on to the sensor tape, the 24/7 Water Sentinel will sound an alarm and transmit a wireless signal to the solenoid module to effectively turn off the solenoid valve and the water flow to your house.
The 24/7 Water Sentinel can also be used as a button pad to be a proactive solution to control water to your dwelling. By mounting the 24/7 Sentinel next to the exit door of your home using the double sided tape, the water can be turned off with the push of a button. This simple feature can help prevent unexpected water problems when the building will be unoccupied.
To cover long distance runs, the
appliance module must be used as well as the transceiver module. The solenoid valve is then plugged into the appliance module instead of the transceiver module and the transceiver module is then moved closer to the remotely located 24/7 Sentinel sensor.
In the event of a power failure the solenoid module automatically shuts the water off to your home, providing peace of mind when you are away. If you happen to be home during a power failure, then you can simply use the manual override button on the solenoid valve to turn the water back on if needed.
